01:024:022 And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the
           man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two
           bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold;

01:024:023 And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee:  is
           there room in thy father’s house for us to lodge in?

01:024:024 And she said unto him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of
           Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.

01:024:025 She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender

           ran out unto the man, unto the well.

01:024:030 And it came to pass, when he saw the earring and bracelets
           upon his sister’s hands, and when he heard the words of
           Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto me; that
           he came unto the man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at
           the well.

01:024:031 And he said, Come in, thou blessed of the lord; wherefore
           standest thou without? for I have prepared the house, and room
           for the camels.

01:024:032 And the man came into the house:  and he ungirded his camels,
           and gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash
           his feet, and the men’s feet that were with him.

01:024:033 And there was set meat before him to eat:  but he said, I will
           not eat, until I have told mine errand.  And he said, Speak on.

01:024:034 And he said, I am Abraham’s servant.

01:024:035 And the lord hath blessed my master greatly; and he is become
           great:  and he hath given him flocks, and herds, and silver,
           and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and

           land I dwell:
